Hi can anyone tell me if a digital dash cluster can be fitted in place of a normal dash cluster and would it be a simple unplug and plug in or would it need other electronics fitted

Thanks

Richard

Have a look on http://www.zcentre.co.uk

They got a very nice Drift Iridium setup on there.

Rolando has one of these installed. I am sure he will be along shortly with pictures....

Yes I saw the clusters on the Zcentre website but out of my price range at moment but I have seen digital dash for 300zx for sale from a breakers which was a OE fitted part

I've only seen a standard digital dash in the USDM Z31.

Yes it was certain Z31 300zx's that had the digital dash non were fitted to the Z32 300zx from factory.

Only the Z31 had a digital dash and it wasn't for all model years. Actually, the 280zx turbo had one too. If you look at late 80s top spec Maximas, they also had a digital dash. Unfortunately I think these were only available on US models and as such have a really low Max speed. This would be the closest thing you'd get to 'plug and play'.

 

 

I do like digital dashes in principle, but the ones you could fit to a Z32 from the Nissan family would make the interior look like this:

 

 

Your only other option would be to look at using a 6-cylinder Lexus one from an old SC or something. I have no idea what the signal imputs are converted to, but if you understand the schematics, then I am sure you could fit one - but again, it looks really 80s....but better than the Z31 dash.

Looks like I will have to save up for the drift cluster from the Zcentre it costs 480.00 but it looks brilliant

Yes i do have digital gauges :)

 

Rolandas, have they been any good bud?

A coulple extra things you can do with digital dash. Set service intervals. Adjust speed for all tyre sizes. 0-60 mph time. Check your highest rpm. Set shift light . Some other stuff i can't remember :) the other good thing it's on obstructed by the steering wheel. So you see your speed :)
